Abstract:
It has long been known that chronic inflammatory systemic diseases, such as psoriasis, pose a high risk of developing comorbidities. In everyday clinical practice, it is therefore of particular importance to identify patients who have an individually increased risk profile. In patients with psoriasis, the comorbidity patterns “metabolic syndrome”, “cardiovascular comorbidity” and “mental illness” were identified as particularly relevant in epidemiological studies depending on the duration and severity of the disease. In the everyday care of patients with psoriasis in dermatological practice, the use of an interdisciplinary checklist for risk analysis and the initiation of professional follow-up care has proven valuable. On the basis of an existing checklist, the contents were critically evaluated by an interdisciplinary group of experts and a guideline-oriented update was prepared. In the opinion of the authors, the new analysis sheet represents a practicable, factually focused and updated tool for comorbidity risk assessment in patients with moderate and severe psoriasis.
